Licensed Therapist &
Founder Coach
I believe that with the right person, therapy and coaching can be collaborative, deeply effective, and can help with immediate problems or long-standing struggles. People are naturally lively and healthy, but our access to this liveliness can become blocked as we are forced to adjust to various life challenges and work stressors.
Hi, I’m Myra Castañeda-Selva
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and co-founder of Amity Chicago, now splitting time between Barcelona and Chicago.
I work to help people gain awareness of why and how they have lost access to meaningful parts of themselves, find ways to remove blocks to emotional growth, and move towards a life that feels more connected and alive. In doing so, I attend to past and present circumstances, behaviors, feelings, thoughts, and the body. I am open, authentic, engaged, and gently challenging in my interactions with clients.
I’ve had the incredible privilege to work with a variety of individuals, couples, and entrepreneurs from all over the world as they explore authentic connection, self improvement, and healing.
I work as both a Founder Coach and Psychotherapist (LMFT). Explore my services and see what feels right for you – I offer free consultation calls and would be happy to talk about the ways in which we can work together.
Looking forward to it,
Myra
